This case was separate from the 34 charges that were filed against Mr. Trump in Manhattan, New York, on Tuesday, but both cases involve Ms. Daniels.
The defamation lawsuit was filed by Ms. Daniels after Mr. Trump referred to her allegations about an affair with him as a “total con job” in a tweet in 2018. Mr. Trump dismissed her claim that she was threatened in a parking lot to keep quiet about the affair. The case was eventually dismissed after a judge ruled that Mr. Trump’s statement was protected by the First Amendment.
